Just got word that Roc Raida - one of the best scratch DJ's to ever do has passed away this weekend. Aparently he was in a Martial Arts accident and has been in the hospital for some time now and lost his last battle.
I had the pleasure to meet Raida a few times thanks to my boy Steve who always threw shows with Raida. Funny thing is how this amazing DJ who had been crowned a Grand Master in Djing (if you don't know you will not understand it) was from NYC but lived recently in Millersville, the town I grew up in. He actually lived right near my current house and we always talked about meeting up and messing around together - really though I just wanted to watch him dj in his own home environment.... looks like I should of picked up the phone and called when he told me to. Rest in Paradise Raida - you will be missed.
Here are a few gems from youtube of his mastery.

Turntable Heads

My favorite part is the guys face on the turntable at the end during the beat juggle. Hilarious robot noises

F'N Stupid
So I had to post this even though I have no respect for this guy at all. Soulja Boy to me is the worst rapper and I hate the fact that he has more money than I do. Talk about wasting your money, I mean I wonder how many people in his family are out of work and jobless right now and he is out dropping diamonds on a remote control Labo??? Seriously, I hope when I have kids they do not act like this, look up to this, nor piss their money away like this. Sorry for the rant but this shit is stupid.
Such a Fantasy
One of the funniest shows on TV - Cant wait for the new season. Reminds me of what my friends and I would do if we had the money and time.
